What Our Editors Thought
“Strong woody, almost cocoa-powder-like note in the nose with berry undertones. Bolder berry in the flavor, accentuated by the semisweet body, with a balancing drying woody note below. Interesting and engaging.”
What Our Panel Thought
“Pineapple, dank peaches, citrus in the nose. The taste contrasts, starting with a firm, clean bitterness before jumping into a bouquet of grapefruit, tangerine, pine, diesel, followed by a background malt sweetness. A good, bitter-forward, flavorful example.”
What the Brewers Say
“North Star Pils, a bit of dextrin, Citra, Nectaron, Simcoe, Mosaic.”
